Disclaimer : Castle is not mine.
When they arrived back at the loft Alexis and Tim were slow to walk in as they took everything in. Everything was so new and neither of them ever remembered anything besides the four dark walls that they had slowly began to decorate with their four sharpies.
Castle gently closed the door behind them and Beckett and watched as Alexis and Tim slowly turned around looking at everything when an ecstatic Martha came running down the stairs with her eyes wide and heading for Alexis. Alexis' eyes were wide and panicked and she slowly started to back away Tim coming in front of her and thankfully before anything could happen Rick and Kate stopped Martha and explained everything how Alexis didn't remember anything and how if you get too close she might get defensive and under no circumstance do you hurt or touch Tim.
Martha turned sad eyes to Alexis and she stared at her for a few moments before taking a small step forward and said "I'm Martha Rodgers and I'm your grandmother." Martha felt awkward doing this but knew it had to be done.
Alexis stepped from behind Tim and slowly took a few steps towards her and stared trying to take in every detail. Alexis slowly nodded and everyone but Tim and Alexis let out a breath of relief.
"Are guys hungry ?" Castle asked clapping his hands and rubbing them together and walking towards the kitchen to go through the cupboards. Alexis and Tim slowly followed him and stood at the Castle turned around after not receiving a response he saw they were nodding their heads and he turned back around again to go through the cupboard.
"So what do you guys want ? You can have pasta, sandwiches or a salad or..." Castle stopped talking when he saw the were looking at him in confusion and he had a wave of anger come over him and he said in a low voice through gritted teeth "What did they give you ?"
Alexis and Tim replied at the same time "Beans." They said it like it was nothing, like it was something you heard everyday.
Startled eyes turned to them and Castle slammed the cupboard closed with his anger.
"All they gave was beans ?! Nothing else-" Castle was practically shouting now.
Alexis and Tim slowly walked backwards, Tim's shielding Alexis. Beckett saw this and stopped Castle and said "Castle I think you should stop now." And she indicated to Alexis and Tim who were now a respectable distanced away from him and Tim was now protecting Alexis.
Castle went to step towards them but they stepped back.
Alexis whispered something in Tim's ear and he nodded and turned to Castle and asked, "Sir do you have a gym or anything like that near by ?" Tim asked politely.
Castle nodded and said "Yeah yeah I'll show you." He said and indicated for them to follow him, Beckett, Alexis and Tim following close behind.
When they entered the gym Alexis and Tim were breathless and they walked around looking at all the new equipment. There was treadmills and weights and even a boxing ring and punching bag. They thought this gym had everything.
"I know its not a lot but its something right." Castle said.
Alexis and Tim turned to him and smiled saying 'thank you.'
Castle and Beckett sat down and watched them walk around.
"So what do you want to do first Lex ?" Tim asked looking at Alexis and smiled at how happy she looked.
"The punching bag." Alexis sad with a smile looking back at him.
Castle stood and went to get the boxing gloves for her and when he walked over to give them to her she looked at him with a small smile and a confused furrow between her brows.
"Thank you but I think I'll be fine without them." Alexis said and Castle looked at the gloves and then her.
"But win't you hurt yourself ?" Castle asked.
Alexis smirked at him and shook her head no. She walked back over to the punching bag and started to hit it at full force throwing in a few kicks.
Castle went to sit on the bench next to Beckett with his jaw hanging open. After a few minutes Tim came and sat down next to him.
"She's good you know. She was always the best in the ring she only ever lost one fight but she hated it, she hated having to fight and injure people. Do you know its actually because of her we know who you guys are, she had the idea to right the names of people we trust somewhere no one would ever see. We wrote them on out stomachs." Tim had a small smile at this point. "She's my best friend." Tim said smiling whilst watching Alexis do what she liked and he couldn't help but stare at her.
Castle watched Tim stare at Alexis.
"Will she be okay ?" Castle asked.
"You may not believe this sir but she is perfect she has her moments just like everybody does." Tim said and finally tore his gaze away from Alexis to look him in the eyes.
"Why won't she talk to me ?" Castle asked tears in his eyes.
Neither Castle or Tim realized that Alexis walked over to them and finally talked to him. "Because I'm scared, its not my fault that I don't want to talk someone who was wiped from my memory, I try I really do but you have to realize me and Tim have been in a dark room for two weeks with only each other. You just need to be patient." Alexis said the last bit looking away.
Castle nodded with tears in his eyes "Okay I can do that."
Alexis smiled at him and shrugged one of her shoulders at him and said "You know I'm kind of hungry." Alexis said shyly looking at him.
Castle had a brilliant smile on his face and said "come on I'll make you something."
And with that they all headed upstairs, all prepared to try their hardest and to create new memories.
